2004 Bertagna Vougeot Les Petits Vougeots

By on February 28, 2006 #asides

The nose is tight, just a little red-berry influence. Wide and mouth-filling palate – a real increase in interest, but not quite the extra mid-palate depth to the fruit. Good wine.

2004 Bertagna Vougeot Les Cras

By on February 28, 2006 #asides

Tight nose with an oaky edge. The wine has a very good texture and fat, the tannin combines well with the fruit. Quite long too, though I prefer the villages.

2004 Bertagna Vougeot Clos de la Perrière

By on February 28, 2006 #asides

Tight nose, yet still some interesting high tones and an edge of oak. The palate seems to have just a little extra structure vs the previous wines. Very good length too. This is a very nice wine.

2004 Bertagna Chambolle-Musigny Les Plantes

By on February 28, 2006 #asides

This also a little tight but shows some sweet red fruit. Fatter with good texture, lovely balance and good length. A very good wine.

2004 Bertagna Vosne-Romanée Les Beaux Monts

By on February 28, 2006 #asides

Tight-shut, swirling eventually brings a little sweetness. Palate has furry tannin – quite velvety. Lovely depth to the fruit and good length. Some complexity here – this is a super wine.

2004 Bertagna Nuits St.Georges Les Murgers

By on February 28, 2006 #asides

Closed – almost no smell. The tannins are more to the fore vs the Vosne. Good fruit with nice depth to it. Very good length, though the tannin is just dominating. Give this 3-4 years in the cellar to soften.

2004 Bertagna Clos St.Denis

By on February 28, 2006 #asides

Again, almost no nose. A lovely palate – real extra dimension from the mid-palate onwards. The length and balance are first rate. This is a very fine wine.

2004 Bertagna Chambertin

By on February 28, 2006 #asides

Closed. Not fat, rather supple and lithe. Concentrated with lovely depth and intensity plus almost good tannins. Not as ‘big’ as the Clos St.Denis but there’s great poise to this wine – lovely.

2004 Bertagna Clos de Vougeot

By on February 28, 2006 #asides

Tight, perhaps a little creamy red fruit. High-toned fruit in the mouth. Refreshing acidity and good structure – some power too. Just a little austere, but surely very fine as a minimum.
